Starting point is 00:01:09 Welcome back everybody to another episode of the Weekly Planet Where we talk movies and comics and TV shows. My name is James, also known as Mr. Sunday. With me as always is my co-host Nick Mason. Whoop, there it is. It's podcast time. It's podcast time. Which is what I said before the show.
Starting point is 00:01:35 And I said, why don't you open with that? And you said no. Because it seems disingenuous. Well, I say it felt very genuine. Whoop, there it is. It's podcast time. Are we delirious from the cold? Is that what's happening here? It's podcast time. Are we delirious from the cold?
Starting point is 00:01:46 Is that what's happening here? And it's pretty late. We're both wearing puffy jackets. And you've come from work and I've been, I just, my computer crashed this week.
Starting point is 00:01:53 I was telling you about it and I've been struggling to get this video out on an old computer. With cold keys you were telling me. Yeah. These keys are so cold.
Starting point is 00:02:01 This one that I'm using has cold keys. The one inside is fine. Okay, right. The one inside has hot keys. Yeah, it's got the hottest keys. Hidden keys situation. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:02:08 But this one is like, I think they're metal or something. They're still so cold. Anyway, hopefully they'll warm up during the show. Yeah. Because I'd hate to be using cold keys for an hour and a half. Absolutely. Like a savage. Oh, yuck.
Starting point is 00:02:21 It's what they did back in the Victorian era. You threw your toilet waste out the window and you used a laptop with cold keys. I'd rather be dead from the plague. Absolutely. Speaking of being dead. Oh, yes. The world might be ending at some point.
Starting point is 00:02:37 That's the idea, isn't it? Is that the idea? It's in the zeitgeist. Yeah, sure, it's in the zeitgeist. Yeah, that's the plan. Yeah. But the thing is, we've got a fun... Fingers crossed. Yeah cross yeah fingers crossed we've got a fundraiser coming up to make a small effort to hopefully end like not into to lend a tiny world to put it up to put a tiny fraction of support towards
Starting point is 00:02:58 that not happening uh what we're doing mentioned this last week but on the 21st of june uh now the tickets are on sale for our live show that we're doing, which also is linked to a screening of the movie 2040 by Damon Gamow. He's an Australian filmmaker and actor. He also did the Sugar film from a few years ago, which is a documentary about sugars and everything, and you're all dying. Now, 2040 is the 28th sequel to the movie 2012, right? That's correct, yes. Also the climate change movie. Have you seen all the ones in the middle of that?
Starting point is 00:03:26 I figured I'd skip them. It's mostly people screaming at icebergs and whatever because they collapse. It's pretty good. Being chased by wind. Yeah, that's right. I've never seen that movie. No. But it is people being chased by wind, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:03:38 It's literally people being chased down the street by climate coming at them, like buildings freezing as they run away from it. Very cool. Yeah, so it's going to be a live show and a screening, and we're not going to be alone on that live show. Well, not alone. There'll be two of us, but also... There'll be an audience.
Starting point is 00:03:54 That's right. Hopefully there'll be an audience. Will Anderson and Charlie Clawson, who are both guested on this show, they're from TOEFOP and various other projects, including stand-up and radio and comedy and acting and theatre and sport and... Abs.
Starting point is 00:04:07 And abs. Yes, that's right. And so they're going to be joining us as well. So the idea is live show, maybe a toilet break, movie screening, and then... Another toilet break. A toilet break, if you need it. And then afterwards, grab a beer at Rivoli Cinema. And then a toilet break before you go home. Yes, that's right. Or go home and then enjoy a toilet break. A toilet break if you need it. And then afterwards grab a beer at Rivoli Cinema. And then a toilet break before you go home.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Yes, that's right. Or go home and then enjoy a toilet break. Depending how far. Which lasts as long as you want. That's true. Depending on if you have housemates or anything like that. Or how many toilets you have in your house. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:38 It's pretty good, isn't it? It's good, yeah. Yeah. So tickets are only $30. A large chunk of that, I don't think we're making any money off it. Maybe we are. But before I say we're not, we're making very little because it's actually going to be $29 a ticket. That's right.
Starting point is 00:04:54 I don't think actually we're doing any because the proceeds for this year's charity campaign, which is also be kicking off soon, is going towards basically the idea is to farm seaweed. And this seaweed farm is stretching from here to the us and the idea is and i'm going to explain this very badly but it helps uh all the seaweed holds hands that's right yes uh it basically helps uh the co2 emissions and cuts down there because seaweed can grow something like half a meter a day or certain types so it's like the quickest way to kind of combat this problem you You can use it to feed animals. It's better than grain and things like that.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So the idea of this 2040 movie and this campaign is... Put that on your bloody toast, millennials. Exactly. Someone's avocado toast. Put some bloody seaweed on your toast. The idea is by 2040, the movie's kind of optimistic about how all the things are already... The technology is here to kind of have the world recover
Starting point is 00:05:44 and have people being self-sustainable and all those kinds of things. The technology is here, it's just about implementing it. So the movie's not like, you're going to die and don't bother. It's like, hey, maybe we can do something. But that's what the tagline is. It's true.
Starting point is 00:05:58 But that just gets you into the theatre and then you realise it's a bit of a twist. So please come down. At the moment, there's 100 seats, depending on how they sell. I don't know what ticket sales are up to, but we might move into a bigger theater. Or a smaller theater. That's right.
Starting point is 00:06:12 It depends. If sales are embarrassingly slow. That's 21st of July. It's in the afternoon. I think maybe it starts at 2. I can't remember. It's 20 below. $30.
Starting point is 00:06:21 If you're in Melbourne or you can get to Melbourne, please come down. We'd love to see you there. Come and bloody say hi afterwards or during. That's fine. Yell out during any point of it except for the toilet breaks. Do not yell at us during our precious, precious toilet breaks. I plan on taking a 42-minute toilet break during the movie, and I want you to leave me alone, okay?
Starting point is 00:06:41 So this is also the ad for the episode. Oh, yeah, cool. This is the only ad. so there you go i know i banged on about the bloody environment like one of those bloody new age bloody soy milk drink and bloody soy boys that's my real soy boy absolutely yeah but uh i think it's important and a good cause also every dollar that we raise for this is also going to be matched by some foundation i can't remember what so if we raise like 40 000 or 50 000 whatever we got last year they'll match that which is great
Starting point is 00:07:05 that's seaweed for everybody can you imagine oh my god I'm going to put so much seaweed on my toast good excellent anyway enough of this environment shit
Starting point is 00:07:12 let's talk about comic book movies yes yes please Amy Pascal has talked about Tom Hardy and how he will
Starting point is 00:07:22 haven't we all talked about Tom Hardy yeah we have but no her in particular. Oh, okay, right. She wouldn't stop. Because he's going to be returning for the Venom sequel. I think because he has to.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Venom. That's right, Venom. And also she commented on the potential of the Tom Hardy, Tom Holland uniting on all fronts for a Spider-Man Venom movie. Yeah. She says, everyone would love to see that. You never know someday. James made a facial expression
Starting point is 00:07:47 indicating scepticism. That's right. You never know, someday it might happen. We have big plans for Tom Holland to be part of everything, every movie we ever do. He needs to be in every movie that I ever work on. He needs to. So there you go. He's uncharted, isn't he? That sounds like a woman snapping. That sounds
Starting point is 00:08:03 like just somebody in an executive position finally snapping. The pressure's got to them. Yeah. And just constant questions about Tom Holland. She's like, Tom Holland will be in everything. He's everything I ever do. He's in my dreams.
Starting point is 00:08:16 He won't leave me alone. I see him in my toast. The toast comes up. It's got Tom Holland's face burned into it. Both sides. Is Tom Holland my new Jesus? I think he might be. All hail Tom Holland. All toast comes up. It's got Tom Holland's face burned into it. Both sides. Is Tom Holland my new Jesus? I think he might be. All hail Tom Holland.
Starting point is 00:08:28 All hail Tom Holland. So Kevin Feige pretty much said the same thing. It's like, yeah, Sony are pretty much planning to do that. And they're allowed to. Yeah. Because they own Spider-Man and they own Venom. But do they own Tom Holland as an actor? Well, they own him for the Uncharted movie.
Starting point is 00:08:42 They got him in that. Yeah, right. So he's probably in Jumanji. He'll probably make a cameo probably in Jumanji 2 or Jumanji 3, Jumanji 2 Furious. So, yeah. The third one's called Thruppin's Jumanji. What do you think
Starting point is 00:08:58 about that? It's set in that Victorian era where people throw their old video games out with the toilet water at the window. Oh, then they use their cold keyboards to play Fortnite. But instead of Fortnite, it's just people punching each other in their wooden teeth. It's just surviving a Fortnite two weeks without dying of something horrible.
Starting point is 00:09:15 That's the game Fortnite in the Victorian era. There you go. I'd rather see Tom Holland and Tom Hardy in a movie where they aren't Spider-Man and Venom. What about movies where they're both super spies and they're both in love with Reese Witherspoon? Yes, that's right. Yes, absolutely. What do you think? Yeah, it sounds really good. Cool.
Starting point is 00:09:32 It should be called, This Means War 2, Chris Pine's Character Died. That's what it should be called. So we got Tom Holland, he's a new guy. He's his son, maybe. Yeah. That's probably the twist. Yeah, there we go, yes. So, yeah, look, if it was a better Venom movie,
Starting point is 00:09:49 I'd be more excited for this. For sure, yeah. But apparently the reactions to Spider-Man is Gone to Europe is very good. And people are like, there's some stuff in here that'll blow your mind in the post-credits. You'll look at it and you'll never be the same.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Whoa. So, anyway, if it leaks leaks don't tell us we don't want to know absolutely not uh please stop sending us spoilers for things like things we don't we don't want them people do it every now and then some people sent us we saw afterwards that captain america wields the hammer in endgame oh yeah that's right we don't want that i want it ahead of time we do not want that ahead of time yeah so do not want that. We don't want it ahead of time. Yeah. So I'm seeing it on Friday, I think. Oh, bloody darn. And you're seeing it Monday?
Starting point is 00:10:29 Monday, yeah. Because it's just out next week. So how very exciting for everybody. Very good. You looking forward to it? Yeah. Apparently, it's going to blow my bloody mind with all the things in the post credits. It's going to change my whole outlook on the universe, apparently.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Evidently. That's right. So I've set the bar really high is what's happening there. Yeah, you should, Mason. You absolutely should. And you have. Sequel news for Halloween. Remember how Halloween got a sequel that ignored all the other Halloweens?
Starting point is 00:10:51 Yes. But it was just called Halloween, but it was actually the real Halloween 2, even though there already was a Halloween 2 called Halloween Season of the Witch and the actual Halloween sequel was called Halloween 3. But also there was a reboot where there was a sequel to the movie Halloween that Rob Zombie directed that was maybe just called Halloween 2. And did you know there's also a holiday tradition called Halloween? Halloween 2?
Starting point is 00:11:13 Yeah, Halloween 2. So the second one was called Halloween 2. What are we up to, like seven? Who knows? We don't really celebrate Halloween here, do we, Mason, because it's bloody Australia, mate. We don't. We celebrate.
Starting point is 00:11:24 We celebrate. We celebrate. What happens is you put out a meat pie on your bloody front porch, it slowly rots that's what happens the cat eats it and if you're lucky, Paul Hogan might scamper up onto your deck and take a bite that's our Halloween
Starting point is 00:11:41 he flies in from LA where he lives he flies in, LA where he lives. He flies in. He flies in. He eats the pie. And then if you're really lucky, if you keep your window open, he leans in and he whispers a quick tip to evade taxes.
Starting point is 00:11:54 And then he leaves. Just don't pay, mate. Just don't pay. Don't even bother. What are they going to do? I'm in LA. Yeah, that's right. It doesn't matter. That's not an offshore shell company.
Starting point is 00:12:06 This is an offshore shell company. That's right. So anyway, the new Halloween movie is going to be called Halloween 2, even though technically in this continuity it's Halloween 3. And we've already had Halloween 2 several times prior to this. What do you think of that? Jamie Lee Curtis is set to return. It's got a 2020 release date. The last
Starting point is 00:12:25 one was just fine. It was just fine, yeah. Was he running? Maybe we'll definitively find out the next one. Maybe that's what this is, yeah. Yeah. What's he up to? He must have those soap shoes where he can glide down railings and stuff, and they've got all the wheelies. He's got the little
Starting point is 00:12:41 wheel he can kick out on the back. He's got heelies. That's what I think is happening little wheel he can kick out on the back. Yeah, he's got wheelies. That's what I think is happening. Maybe he just takes some joy in it. Like, you know, he'll be about to walk slowly down a set of stairs and then the teenager he's chasing, you know, screams and looks the other way and then he just hops on the railing, slides down on his butt.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Yeah. And he goes, wee. But you can't hear it because he's got the mask on. He's got the mask yeah exactly i'm not super jazzed for this to be honest for halloween too yeah slash three i mean it very much left it open to the last one because he didn't die it's true and then i think he was in the credits and he was like you you thought it was over but i'm here yeah is that what he said it's because i guess the downfall of this sort of thing Is that at this point
Starting point is 00:13:25 There's nothing you can do Yeah, I mean give him purpose Or reason I should say But I also feel like We know that from other movies But this version technically doesn't It's the sort of thing where
Starting point is 00:13:41 The ending never really feels satisfying To me because There's no definitive way It's the sort of thing where, like, the ending never really feels satisfying to me because there's no definitive way to permanently rid yourself of him. And regardless of what happens to him, they can always find a way to just be like, no, actually, it was the ambulance driver. We put his mask on him, so it's a different guy. He's back again. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Like, you know. Shoot him in the head. Shoot him in the head. Why didn't they shoot him in the head? Remember when they were all just watching him in the fire? Yeah. you know. Shoot him in the head. Shoot him in the head. Why didn't they shoot him in the head? Remember when they were just watching him in the fire? Yeah. I would have shot him in the head. I would have shot him so many times.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I'm not really a fan of guns. I'm really not. But I would have shot that dude like 50 fucking times. If you got him and he's Michael Myers, a serial killer. Oh my God, I would never stop shooting him. Yeah. Even if he was like, you got me, I'm dead though. Then no.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I definitely, because that's a trick, Mason. I would get in the ambulance with him and I'd just shoot him all the way to the morgue. You're right. That's what we're doing. And then you just keep shooting until, you know, your wife called and was like, you coming home? And you'd be like, more gaudily, can you hold this and just keep shooting him for a bit? Just keep shooting him.
Starting point is 00:14:43 And if his body comes, give me a call. I don't want to be surprised. I don't want to be surprised if he comes up and he kills you. Yeah. And then he comes to my house again. That's right. You know what? I'm going to put you on speaker.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Yes. So I want to hear you shooting him as I'm having dinner with my family. Yeah. Anyway, good. It's happening. Maybe they can do some twists and stuff in this one. Well, I mean, I guess the twist of the last one, did it seem to suggest that the evil of Michael Myers
Starting point is 00:15:10 somehow ended up in one of the daughters? Is that what was happening? What happened there? I think that might be a different movie. Oh, no. Or the same. I don't know. No, I think it was that movie.
Starting point is 00:15:19 I feel... Which daughter? Weren't they all escaping in the truck at the end? The granddaughter? Yes. I don't know. Did she have a bit of an evil twinkle in the truck at the end? The granddaughter? Yes. I don't know. Did she have a bit of an evil twinkle in her eye? Who knows?
Starting point is 00:15:27 All right. Yes. Let's say I would have shot her all the way to the morgue as well. I'd shoot them both just to be sure. But then am I the Michael Myers, you know? Is that what happens? I guess so, yeah. You start shooting everybody who thinks the Michael Myers, it's you.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Yeah, except now you're Michael Myers with a gun, which is more dangerous. I don't even need to be running. Yeah. Marvel had a big countdown this week, Mason. Oh, so good. Which for some reason started at the number four. Insanity. We talked about it before the show, and we came to the conclusion is that they meant to start at five and they missed a day.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Yeah, they were like, here's the news, we're going to release it on this day,'s the heart here's the news we're going to release it on this day no matter what the contract says we've got to release it on this day and the intern was like yeah sure we've got that i'll put five up today yeah and then it got to like knock off time no he woke up the next morning and he's like oh no yeah and so they were but that's the thing the only acceptable countdown times to start on are 10 5 and 3 yeah that's exactly nobody starts on 4. That's right. Or 1, because then it's over before you realise it's a countdown. Unless you're threatening to shoot somebody.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Yeah. And you're like, once I get to 1, you're dead, mate. Yeah, that's right. And then they go, ooh, and you go, 1, bang! Gotcha! Yeah, Michael Myers. But yeah, like, because... Oh, by the way, people thought it was including me, Spider-Man 4.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Yeah, because Marvel put up a tweet and it was a picture of a 4 in webs. And people lost their minds because they were like, okay, well this is the unproduced Sam Raimi Spider-Man 4 movie in comic book form. And then people were like, is this some sort of Spider-Man Fantastic Four team up see I didn't think it was the Sam Raimi thing initially until Alex Ross
Starting point is 00:17:09 who did a lot of art for the Spider-Man movies he does like the stuff in the credits he posted an image on the same day of some of his art from those movies
Starting point is 00:17:18 with the hashtag Spider-Man 4 yeah right yeah so is he working on this I'm not even sure that he is yeah right but I still think that maybe there's a chance that this is he working on this i'm not even sure that he is yeah so but i still think
Starting point is 00:17:26 that maybe there's a chance that this is coming maybe and this isn't it i mean just make it why wouldn't you yeah anyway sorry go on just knock out just get anybody to knock it out i should point out we're current we're working on the spider-man trilogy of a caravan of garbage the first one is this week yeah we're doing the trilogy and it's got me jazzed for like and they're not perfect but you'd read the adaptation of this right yeah i'd read that yeah sure yeah anyway so what do we do we have is the script out there or is like the the elements of it is there's some storyboards there's some concept art all the casting's pretty much confirmed and out there cool yeah nice and hathaway was going to be black cat but then she ended up being a cat woman different movie yes i
Starting point is 00:18:04 think she's in the movie Cats as well. Wow. I don't know, that's true. Yeah. So anyway, it turned out to be J.J. Abrams is writing a new Spider-Man comic with his son, Henry, which is, you know, good for them. Sure. But that, what do you, why would you, like, they just got heat for that.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Like, that kid's like 20. Why does that need a countdown? It doesn't. Like, if, look, I could understand that if J.J. Abrams is commonly known for countdown somehow. Like if every one of his movies had a countdown from four till one. It's a mystery box. Yeah, it is a mystery box. It absolutely is.
Starting point is 00:18:37 If everything from Alias to Lost to Mission Impossible 3 had a countdown from 4 till 1, and then the big action set piece happened. I'd be like, well, that actually makes a lot of sense. But nothing of this needed a countdown. Just release it on a day. Agreed. Unless he was like, well, I demand hype for this, so we've got to do a 4 till 1 countdown.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Yeah, and I demand a start at 4 because it's the half of the movie, the number from Super 8, which is 8. People will get it because it's a mystery box. Yeah, for sure. a start at four because it's the half of the movie, the number from Super 8, which is eight. People will get it because it's a mystery box. Yeah, for sure. People will unravel that. But that happened, if you remember, when they did the first trailer, I think, for Cloverfield. Yeah. Some other stuff came out at the same time.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Other was unrelated? Yeah, there was like this augmented, there was like this online multiplayer game that came, like there was this augmented reality game trailer for like an online role-playing game or something like that that came out at the same time, and there were mysterious videos and clues and a website or whatever. And people were like, oh, my God, this is all connected. And a website. And it turned out it wasn't connected.
Starting point is 00:19:38 It was just some dude's game. Was it good? I don't think so. Yeah, cool. Maybe it was. Maybe it's still around. What was it called? I'll Google it so. Yeah, cool. Good on him. Maybe it was. Maybe it's still around. What was it called? I'll Google it right now. Anyway, like, good on him.
Starting point is 00:19:48 I mean, that's, you know, that's probably a good one. Do we know anything about the plot? Is it a limited series? I don't believe so. I think it's just called Spider-Man, so it's not... Terrific. I think it's not linked to anything currently, or we don't really know the narrative, so there you go. Yes. Anyway. There was
Starting point is 00:20:03 a website called Ethan Haas Was Right, which was a viral marketing campaign to promote a role-playing game called Alpha Omega, The Beginning and the End. Cool, man. The game received publicity online after it was erroneously connected with the J.J. Abrams film Cloverfield. The game consists of a series of flash puzzles, all concerning a giant sphere that changes shape as each one is solved.
Starting point is 00:20:25 A sphere changes shape? Yeah. To what? Behind the sphere, a city skyline at night is visible. As one completes the puzzles, the image progressively changes to that of a destroyed city.
Starting point is 00:20:34 That's a very happy coincidence for that game. Isn't it, right? Yeah, exactly. Yeah. And there was all these cryptic videos and whatever and you got sent weird stuff.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Anyway. Good on that person. Yeah, I wonder if anybody played that game. I agree. Yeah. videos and whatever and you got sent weird stuff anyway good on that yeah i wonder if anybody played that game i agree fx is the veil explores the surprising and fraught relationship between two women who play a deadly game of truth and lies on the road from istanbul to paris and london one woman has a secret the other a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost. FX's The Veil, starring Elizabeth Moss, is now streaming on Disney+.

Starting point is 00:22:08 Yeah, there we go. That's what you said. That's what you said. And then Lucasfilm said, and Disney were like, no, no, no, it isn't. They took him out of the cast list. Well, they would do that, wouldn't they? Yeah. Because they don't want us to be right.
Starting point is 00:22:20 It's a real J.J. Abrams situation, isn't it? It's a real Ethan Haas was right situation. We're Ethan Haas in this situation. We're Ethan Haas in this situation. This concerns The Matrix and we've got a friend who's connected
Starting point is 00:22:29 to the film industry in Australia. Keanu Reeves. Keanu Reeves, that's right. We shouldn't have said it was Keanu Reeves because now people know.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Our friend is Keanu Reeves. Yes. But basically a new Matrix series will begin filming in Australia with the Wachowskis. They're ramping up
Starting point is 00:22:44 with crew and pre-production and things like concept art to kick things off. Oh. Yeah. So there's been talk of a new Matrix series for a while. Yeah. So this is what's happening. Apparently, well, this is from this person,
Starting point is 00:22:59 and this might just be speculation that Warner Brothers weren't really interested in doing anything with the Wachowskis other than the Matrix because their track record record even if you like the movies they've done since financially they've most of them have not been successful all of them maybe have not been successful so yeah so The Matrix is coming back for a series of films potentially I guess if the first one for sure yeah I think they'll all be successful regardless yeah right so this is the if this is true which i'd say it probably is because our scoops are the hottest of scoops the hottest scoops there are uh then this is the perfect time to bring back the matrix oh because we're in the
Starting point is 00:23:37 middle of the reeves nascence yeah and by the time the matrix rolls around people will be sick of kiana reef so that lines up with everything that normally works. So yeah, what do you think? I think that's very cool and I would like to see that. I think we've talked about it before. What would you rather it be? Would you rather it be a reboot, as it were, or a continuation? I think you could do a reboot within the current universe.
Starting point is 00:23:58 But a continuation. I'm not interested in a reboot. No, same. Just bring back whoever's left in the cast. You can even bring back people who are dead you know you you bring in new and younger characters there was rumors of michael b jordan everybody associated with that i think he's alive and can come back except for tank who was fired for on set shenanigans or something but i'm not really sure the specifics of how that played out no neither but they should bring back tank if i
Starting point is 00:24:23 often think about it me too i was reading an article about it the other day, and I'm like, is this guy hard done by, or was he genuinely upsetting people? Because we don't... Like, there's talk about how it was a pay dispute or he was threatening people, and we don't really know. Anyway, it was 20 years ago. RIP Tank.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Yes. And he was replaced by the other guy, wasn't he? Yeah. And then in the second Matrix, one of them was was like my brother tank died off screen do you remember yeah he got he got eaten by a robot squid it's very tragic put him on the balls he died so very embarrassing for him yeah i do wonder how you bring back keanu Reeves and make him do Kung Fu in a way that isn't like, isn't he magic forever? Can't he do anything? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Yeah. Is it a new version of the Matrix so he can't? Yeah. Yeah. Or maybe you put him where he probably should have been in the first place, which is no longer a guy that has to karate people. Yes, right. You make him...
Starting point is 00:25:20 But then who's doing the karate? Morpheus, I guess. Yeah. Or a different guy. Yeah. Yeah. We saw that Patrick Willems movie. We did, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:26 And he kind of redid the Matrix sequels. And one of the ideas was that he gets put in a slightly different version of the Matrix, which he can't control, which is why he has to do Kung Fu. Because a lot of the characters from the Matrix sequels apparently are from an earlier version. Yeah, the Merovingian and etc. Yeah, and a bunch of others. And the werewolves. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:44 And maybe Keanu Reeves doesn't know how to use his kung fu because the text writing goes up instead of down. Exactly. So he's like, I don't even understand. And then he realises that he can just put mirrors in his sunglasses and he's got it. He's nailed it again. Yeah, cool.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Yeah. Anyway, good stuff. Anyway, that's the hottest scoop we have this week. I mean, that being said, though, you have provided scant details there. That's all I got. It's every bit of information that I've got. Well, it's just, I mean... The last Matrix film was filmed in Australia as well.
Starting point is 00:26:14 I should point that out. Yeah, right. Because, like, we definitely are getting some Matrix sequels of some kind at some point because it's a pre-existing property and there are no more new ideas in Hollywood. That was the last new idea in 1999 and warner brothers has pretty much shanked every major property exactly what is in the if you don't know in the warner brothers offices there's like a there's the two key situations emergencies only and when you turn it and the door opens it's just like the the rights to a matrix. And they take that out.
Starting point is 00:26:45 That's the last thing they have. Because they already opened the DC vault and the Harry Potter vault and the Godzilla vault. It's the time for their last vault. Yeah, right. Good on them. Next bit of news, Mason. There's been a little bit of moving and shaking over at Lucasfilm,
Starting point is 00:26:59 and you know what that means. It's Star Wars News, Mason. It's Star Wars News, Mason. Remind me again, when are they taking a break from Star Wars? It's Star Wars New Space. Now, remind me again, when are they taking a break from Star Wars? It's soon, right? 20, after the end of this year. Okay. But there's also multiple ongoing series starting up,
Starting point is 00:27:15 and then in three years from then, we'll be getting another trilogy and then another trilogy. Okay, right. Good. Yeah. Good? No. Okay, somebody out there who is really up to date On all the various
Starting point is 00:27:28 Star Wars timelines Steel Steel Saunders is Yeah that's true Steel Saunders Yeah But you weren't a fan of this show Yeah
Starting point is 00:27:35 Not a shill Is what you're saying That's right exactly Okay yeah Do we talk about There's a video of that guy Which guy? The guy on YouTube
Starting point is 00:27:43 Who's like He got real mad That he wasn't invited to Star Wars oh yeah I know him I met him Christian Arloff
Starting point is 00:27:48 yeah yeah real mad bit of an overreaction yeah I was gonna say but if somebody could like
Starting point is 00:27:54 draw a little timeline and put X's where there's gonna be no Star Wars for some amount of time
Starting point is 00:28:02 cause I just wanna I just wanna like a like a time period like I just want a time period, maybe just a month, where there's literally no Star Wars of any kind. That's all I want.
Starting point is 00:28:13 No news, no comics. Yeah. There's got to be... I mean, since you're a kid, has it ever really gone away? No, that's the genesis of the character. Why he doesn't know what Star Wars is. Because how did he miss it?
Starting point is 00:28:26 It's unimaginable that he would not know what it is that he would not see a reference to it every day of his life, forever Even if there was two months, and there was no Star Wars and there was no Star Wars news on the horizon I'd always be thinking about Star Wars I'd be like, Star Wars is going to sneak up
Starting point is 00:28:42 on me, isn't it? Yeah, and I'm not against Star Wars forever, because why not? No, because it can just turn away at some point I'm against the. I feel like Star Wars is going to sneak up on me, isn't it? Yeah. And I'm not against Star Wars Forever, because why not? Yeah. No, because it can just turn away at some point. I'm against the concept of something called Star Wars Forever, though. I was... Who was I speaking to? I think it was Ben, or maybe Ben's in this on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:28:57 You know, Ben the editor. I know Ben. And now Star Wars is trying to be Star Wars how Star Wars used to be. But Marvel is... Which is what? Which is Star Wars every once in a while? but Marvel is which is what which is Star Wars every once in a while yeah
Starting point is 00:29:06 or like the big thing in pop culture yeah right like the biggest franchise but Star Wars at the moment is Marvel Marvel is Star Wars right now
Starting point is 00:29:14 like the way that Star Wars was big yeah in like the 70s and 80s and a lot of the 90s yeah Marvel is that now now
Starting point is 00:29:21 and in 20 years everyone will hate all the new Marvel and whatever or love it and who knows I don't know yeah anyway
Starting point is 00:29:28 sure but this is what the kids are into now like Marvel's the thing right yep Marvel movies even bad ones don't tank or average ones don't tank
Starting point is 00:29:36 but Star Wars movies have proven that maybe anyway I don't care anyway we've got news Mason alright I'm ready Lucasfilm president I avoided this offer
Starting point is 00:29:43 as long as I could by talking about Star Wars. Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has named Michelle Reguilán as... Rodriguez? No, SWP of live action development and production for Lucasfilm. Basically, she's going to be overseeing all live action and properties, including television and movies. Cool, man. Which is huge.
Starting point is 00:30:02 and properties, including television and movies. Cool, man. Which is huge. She's worked on Super 8, Into Darkness, The Force Awakens, The Rise of Skywalker. She'd know all about four-step countdowns then, wouldn't she? No. She worked on Super 8. Doubt.
Starting point is 00:30:16 That's right. So it's a pretty big role to kind of step into to oversee all of these things. It's like a massive promotion. I wouldn't want to do it. Good luck. But no, good on her. So, you know, we'll see how that bloody plans out. So she's worked on some good stuff.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Yep. Except into darkness. Yeah. That's not her fault. You know what they do is they probably, if you want to be like the head of something in Star Wars they put you in like a sealed like you know one of those sensory deprivation
Starting point is 00:30:49 tanks and they just show you a screen and it's just randomly generated Twitter abuse at you for hours and they open the tank and they're like how do you feel and if they're okay they get to be the BP in charge of production or whatever
Starting point is 00:31:04 or even if they say bad, it's like, well, too bad. Yeah. Because this is your job. We're paying you a lot. So you're going to have to do it. Oh, no,
Starting point is 00:31:12 second last bit of news. The Kingsman movie, the prequel has been announced. The name of the movie will be The King's Man Servant.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Yes, that's right. It's a Pennyworth prequel. Oh, again. Finally. It's coming. It's a Pennyworth prequel. Oh, again, finally. It's coming to the... It's the prequel to the prequel to Gotham. Excellent. That's four prequels deep. I know, right?
Starting point is 00:31:31 That's what the countdown should have been. Yes. Yeah. Is this synopsis? It's going to be... What if the four referred to... It was a four-deep prequel to Sam Raimi's Spider-Man. What if that's what it was?
Starting point is 00:31:44 So it wasn't about... It was about... It's an art-made spy film. Yeah, it was Peter Parker's great-great-grandparents who didn't really get up to anything. Yeah. But occasionally a spider wanders into shot and people are like,
Starting point is 00:31:58 oh my God, just like Spider-Man. You know, just like Spider-Man. It's a little nod to the head. People who really know this series, they know that their great-great-grandchild is Peter Parker. It's going to be Ben Baird, but not that Spider-Man. A different Spider-Man, but maybe a descendant of this Spider. But we don't know that definitively. We don't know that for sure.
Starting point is 00:32:16 We're going to have to watch all the prequels leading up to know if that's the same Spider family. They're not going to produce him. This is very unpopular. We know. The fans know. They know. You don't know. I wouldn not going to produce them. This is very unpopular. We know. The fans know. They know. You don't know. I wouldn't put it past Sodi. So this is the Kingsman prequel.
Starting point is 00:32:31 Synopsis. As a collection of the world's history's worst tyrants and criminals, masterminds gather to plot a war to wipe out millions. One man must race it against time to stop them. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:32:46 So I guess it's an origin for the Kingsman. Yes. He's like, I'm just one King's man. And they're like, what if you were many King's men? And he's like,
Starting point is 00:32:52 ooh. All the King's horses indeed, he says. Yes. Let's do this. Ooh, totally tubular. Oh, I've got a clockwork bag that shoots a spring
Starting point is 00:33:00 that has a poison dart in it. A clockwork bag, you say? Yeah, it's got gears in it, Mason. All right. What, do you think there's not going to be a bag with dart in it. The clockwork bag yourself. Yeah, it's got gears in it, Mason. What, do you think there's not going to be a bag with gears in it? You're a fucking idiot if you don't think that's the case. Just like a canvas sack? What is it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:14 You know like Mary Poppins' bag? Yeah. But it's full of clockwork shit. Oh, yeah, nice. It's probably got a really big camera that makes a lot of noise and they're like, this is the latest in spy technology and us being the modern day audience are like
Starting point is 00:33:25 well to them that sounds really good but for us we know that everyone's just on our phones that's right haven't even heard of Google Glasses
Starting point is 00:33:34 that's right alright cool so it's do you think they're going to use historical villains do you think it's him versus Hitler
Starting point is 00:33:41 or something I think it's a World War 1 one so yeah there's a bunch of bad so Hitler's grandparents yeah that's right or just Hitler because he was also around then when So yeah, there's a bunch of bad... So Hitler's grandparents. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Or just Hitler, because he was also around then. And when that character appears on screen, they'll be like, that's Hitler's grandparents. Are you kidding me? We don't know. We know. Not everybody knows, but we know that's Hitler's. Because he's going to have... You know how Howard Stark often looks?
Starting point is 00:33:57 He'll have similar facial... He'll have a mustache. Yeah, sure. Well, Tony Stark has that, and he also has that. So Hitler's going to have the little... Hitler's granddad is going to have the Hitler mustache, but it's two elements slightly to the side. Like left of center?
Starting point is 00:34:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or he's going to have the Hitler mustache, but also big sideburns. So you know it's Hitler's granddad. Should we be laughing about Hitler's granddad? Probably not. No, I just think that would be... That's ridiculous. Or Hitler mustache, Tony Stark beard.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Okay. So it's not connected at the mustache part. Yeah, not connected at the mustache. I can buy that. Yeah. Okay. I speak of... Or, wait, wait, I haven't finished one more.
Starting point is 00:34:43 All right. Hitler mustache, flavour saver. All the way downista. Wait, wait. I haven't finished one more. All right. Hitler mustache. Flavor saver. All the way down. All the way down. Yep. Yep. Very good.
Starting point is 00:34:56 And all the way up. His eyebrows connect. Oh, he's one of those guys. Yeah. Yeah, sort that out. But he doesn't have any actual eyebrows. It's just the middle bit. It's the middle bit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Man, people are going to see this guy come, but how's he going to be disguised? It doesn't matter any actual eyebrows it's just the middle bit it's the middle bit yeah man people are going to see this guy come but how's he going to be disguised it doesn't matter Avengers Endgame will be returning to cinemas
Starting point is 00:35:11 because it wants to beat Avatar yep that's the reason and it will off the back of this it's going to be the same film except there's some
Starting point is 00:35:17 bonus credit stuff there's a deleted scene a tribute which I assume is to Stan Lee yeah and a few surprises says Kevin Feige,
Starting point is 00:35:25 which means probably a post-credits, I'd imagine. I would say so, yeah. Yeah, because they are going to bloody Comic-Con this year, so we're going to get that whole slate. Yeah, right. Of movies released. What do you think? Well, maybe throw in a gag reel, maybe, something like that?
Starting point is 00:35:38 Yeah, maybe. A lot of people are suggesting, a lot of people want the guy from Ant-Man, whose name I cannot recall, Michael Peña? Is that his name? Yeah. Recap the entire MCU in like six minutes. Hasn't he done that already?
Starting point is 00:35:48 Without a break. Hasn't he done that already with Paul Rudd? Did he? I think he did do it. Okay. Didn't he sit down with him and do it? I think they did at Comic-Con. I don't know if they've released it.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Oh, okay. Right. That's probably it. And they got to the Incredible Hulk and they're like, oh, we didn't see it. They just skip it. Okay. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Okay. Well, I reckon that's going to be it. All right then. It's Toy Story time. We skipped it. Okay, right. Okay, well, I reckon that's going to be it. All right, then. It's Toy Story time. Toy Story time. Again, because it started in 95 when I was in primary school, which is insane. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Did you see? Well, look, okay. Did I see it? Yes, I did. Toy Story 4. Excellent. There's a video on my channel this week on a Toy Story sequel that was never made.
Starting point is 00:36:23 They went a long way to making it. Yeah. And then without Pixar, and then it all, something changed. Yeah, right. Anyway, I think it's a really interesting story. Toy Story? Yes. It's the real Toy Story 3, sort of, that they didn't make.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Interesting. It's on my channel. I'll link it below. But look, okay, this movie was expecting the $140 million in its opening weekend in the US, but it's going to hit a disappointing $120 to $125 million. Boo. Boo. Wow.
Starting point is 00:36:49 That's still the third or fourth highest animated opening, depending on whether it beats Shrek the Third's $121 million. So that's exciting, isn't it? It really is, yeah. It's been a pretty weak summer after Endgame. People are wondering why these blockbusters are failing, like Men in Black, Godzilla, whatever. Those aren't great movies, I think might be part of it,
Starting point is 00:37:08 or a lot of people don't think. But I genuinely think that Endgame just sucked the air out of everything. People see their one movie, and then they're like, I've seen a big movie. I'm exhausted. People literally hit their mark of like, we've been doing this for 11 years.
Starting point is 00:37:24 We're tired. And that was in April or whenever that movie came out. Leave us alone for a minute. Yeah. So, but that's still, this is a massive opening, which is good because, you know, it's a good series. And I didn't think this would be anything but above average. Me too. But what did you think the story was?
Starting point is 00:37:38 Oh, no. Okay. So let me think. This is toys. Yep. And they're magical for some reason. So they're alive. I don't know if they're magical. I guess they are. Yeah, I let me think. This is toys. Yep. And they're magical for some reason. So they're alive. I don't know if they're magical.
Starting point is 00:37:48 I guess they are. Yeah, I don't know. Anyway. Maybe they've got human guts in them. Maybe. Well, at least in Toy Story 5, Toy Story 5, do they have human guts in them? And are they little guts
Starting point is 00:38:01 or are they just like bits of regular sized human guts? Like does Woody have like a kidney in him? You know? A kidney. Yeah. He's powered by a kidney. He could fit a kidney
Starting point is 00:38:12 in his head, a small one. Maybe. Like a child's kidney. Yeah. Yeah. Good. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:38:18 So, the toys, the toys you love from all the other Toy Stories. Anyway, they're with Bonnie now because Toy Story 3 happened. You remember that?
Starting point is 00:38:28 But then Bonnie goes to school. Kindergarten. Kindergarten. And then she makes a little friend. But Mason, it's good that you make friends when you go to kindergarten, isn't it? No, James. I mean, she literally made a friend. With human guts?
Starting point is 00:38:43 Yeah, with human guts. It's horrifying. This series takes a turn, let me tell you. But no, she makes a little toy out of a ball. Yeah, she's a little Michael Fassbender's robot from Alien, just making things out of human guts. Yeah, just playing God and it comes to life. Yeah, so, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:58 And then adventures ensue, and old friends and lovers are reunited, and carnivals and spooky antique shops. Yeah. Isn't it? It is. Okay, before we really... It's a big scale, but it's also, like all the other Toy Story movies, a little scale.
Starting point is 00:39:13 A little bloody story. A little scale. What's your relationship with the Toy Story films? I have seen the first two. You haven't seen the third one, obviously. I don't think so. I don't think so. They're all on Stan.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Then maybe I should watch three. Yeah. I re-watched them all for this, having already seen them all. Yeah. So the first one when I was a kid. They're all great. They are great. They're all on Stan. Then maybe I should watch three. Yeah, I re-watched them all for this, having already seen them all. Yeah. So the first one when I was a kid. They're all great. They are great. They're all good in their different ways.
Starting point is 00:39:30 I think the first one is still my favourite. There is some fucking cracking jokes in that film, man. Still, to this day. There's some cracking jokes in this one as well. I agree. So when was the last time you watched any of the previous ones? I watched them this week. How does the animation compare?
Starting point is 00:39:43 Like the modern one. The first one looks like absolute junk but you don't really notice yeah right because you just it is the first fully cgi movie yeah but the characters like the way they move and the personality and the voice acting it's also dead on yeah that you don't you you it doesn't matter at all like you you could release that now. Yeah. And it would still, it would still work. It's a textures thing. It is, yeah. I think it's, I felt the same with The Incredibles 2.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah. Like, for the most part, they're exactly the same. But like, they've just gone like, make those fabrics look really nice. Yeah, right. Make the hair look good. Yeah. You know, so. You should absolutely watch 3.
Starting point is 00:40:22 I think 3 is probably, 3 rehashes a lot of the plot of 2. Uh-huh. But the ending of 3. Yeah. You know, so. You should absolutely watch 3. I think 3 is probably, 3 rehashes a lot of the plot of 2. Uh-huh. But the ending of 3. Yeah. Is phenomenal. Does Randy Newman do the music? He does. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:40:32 He does. He's back in 4 as well. He certainly is. Mm-hmm. He does a bloody good, I love the, because I've been watching them a few times this week because I got my kid onto them. Yeah, yeah. I don't know if you remember, but in the first Toy Story, the song that he sings when Buzz
Starting point is 00:40:44 Lightyear realizes he's a toy, and it's so sad, and then Buzz Lightyear has a moment where he's like, you know what, I can fly, I'm not a toy, I can do this. And then he jumps and he falls, and then it's sad again, and it's just brutal. It's almost like a metaphor for life when you reach for a goal and just face plant. Which a lot of these movies are, I guess.
Starting point is 00:41:07 When you realise you just do not have the aptitude and skill to do it. And you never will. And you never will. Without severe body modification, you know? That's right. Because he can't fly. No. Unless they tape a drone to him.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Yeah. Which they didn't in any of the movies. They tape a rocket to him. Oh, yeah. He can get a little bit of a boost from his wings. Yeah. He'll kick that open. That is still an amazing toy. Yeah, right. any of the movies they take a rocket to him oh yeah he can get a little bit of a boost from his wings yeah he'll kick that open that is still
Starting point is 00:41:26 an amazing toy yeah right and ever since I've been a kid I'm like I should buy one of those yeah right like it's never left me
Starting point is 00:41:33 that I'm like I'm gonna get one of these would you buy a Woody in a buzz no really just get a no I probably would
Starting point is 00:41:39 for the duo yeah I feel like he doesn't stand up he's too floppy no I know that but you put him on a bookshelf but I feel like if you're gonna like up. He's just floppy. No, I know that. You put him on a bookshelf.
Starting point is 00:41:46 But I feel like if you're going to... If you're going to buy it not to play with it, it would be like... Actually, I'd get it for my son. That's what I'd do. Yeah. Which character does he like the most?
Starting point is 00:41:56 He likes Buzz, though he calls him Lightning Buzz. Not his name. Kids don't know. Not his name. Yeah. So anyway, you should watch them all again if you haven't recently.
Starting point is 00:42:07 And three you haven't seen, which is great. But this is a really good film. I agree. And I thought entirely unnecessary, but Andrew Stanton, who's a big Pixar guy, he apparently was secretly working on this during the third one. Like he kind of made this rough outline. He kept stealing stuff from the set of three. Even though they were like,
Starting point is 00:42:27 this is it, it's done. Yeah. Yeah, the ideas were still there, but it still feels like a movie that, because it's been nine years since the last one. Did you say this movie feels unnecessary? No, no, I thought it would be unnecessary. At the time, yeah, same.
Starting point is 00:42:41 And I guess it is because you could end it at three, but they find a way for the story to keep going in that what does a toy do when it doesn't really serve a purpose anymore yeah right just throw itself into the garbage you know yeah yeah i think there's a lot of and the best movies do this and toy stories do this very well there's a lot of like in kids movies i mean there's parallels to real life real life which adults can relate to and make them crushingly depressed. Yeah, right. And this I feel a big part of it is.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Woody as a dad. Woody as a dad, exactly. Being a parent and your kid grows up and then they don't need you and then what do you do? Because that's a fear of mine, you know what I mean? When my kid grows up and then he never talks to me for no reason. Exactly. You know, like we do to our parents.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Right, exactly, yeah. That's not true. But, yeah, so, yeah, you caught some of that. I get that. I get references and metaphors. I've picked up a few metaphors in my time. Because if it was just like, oh, no, one of them's been stolen again and they've got to get their parts are missing
Starting point is 00:43:39 and there's another villain and the toys didn't get played with enough and that toy's evil or whatever. Yeah, uh-huh. There's not... I mean, there's a bit of that, but... Sure, yeah. But it doesn't really go that way. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Woody is great. I agree, yeah. Tom Hanks is amazing in this role. He started recording this in... Not this movie, but all of them in 91. Yeah, right. He recorded the first... They recorded the first version of it and then they threw it out.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Yeah. So he's been doing that character for this long he's had a he's had a full uh movie career and a full animated movie career yeah exactly yeah insane uh so i just like his exasperation and the it's all in the body language of the floppy doll like it's always been a great design but also i think if if he just did, like, dry delivery of everything. And there are movies, there are even, like, multi-million dollar movies where you get a, you know, a name actor and it's just kind of like... Talking about Shark Tale? I've never seen Shark Tale.
Starting point is 00:44:38 But just like... But are you talking about Shark Tale? Yeah, absolutely, I'm talking about Shark Tale. But, you know, and it's just like they it's the paycheck and they go in and they whatever yeah and they just say the lines and like there's a lot of care and attention ewan mcgregor is valiant the pigeon you familiar with that one he's a carry pigeon during world war ii oh how'd that go the hawks were nazis. All right. Have I got your attention? Yes, you do. Bad.
Starting point is 00:45:07 All right, cool. Yeah. So yeah, so he's good. Everyone's good. Yeah, everyone is good. I feel there are some characters that get sort of, you know, this is the story of Tom, this is the story of Woody and Forky,
Starting point is 00:45:21 who's the new character. And a lot of the other characters kind of get relegated to the cheer squad, really. Which is a shame, but every movie they pick up more people. They picked up Bullseye and Jesse in the second one. And then they pick up a stack of Bonnie's toys in the last one. And Mr. Potato Head, the actor. Oh, Don Rickles. Don Rickles is dead in real life, which is a shame because he's one of my favourite characters.
Starting point is 00:45:44 They used stuff they had left over, and I'm like, oh, I wonder what they've got for this movie. Nothing. It's just him going, oh, Woody! My ear fell off or whatever. Yeah, right, right. There'd be a lot of archival audio of Don Rickles calling people chuckleheads. I guess
Starting point is 00:46:00 they couldn't use that. Yeah, he is hilarious. He's so good. So it's kind of a shame. I think it's a bit Buzz Light. Yeah. Yeah, thank you. You're welcome. We would have sat here for hours if I hadn't said that. Something that should go there.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Yeah. James, why aren't you talking? Maybe I can fill it with Star Wars news until you think of it. I don't know. Yeah, so I feel like the Buzz Lightyear character, it's not his movie though, is it? No, for sure. And does he have any more of an arc to him? I think so.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Without kind of getting too far into it. I feel like the Duke Caboom character does the Buzz Lightyear thing. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. He's kind of a good-natured idiot who sort of believes in his toy programming, I guess. Yeah, to an extent. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Yeah, and Keanu Reeves is good. He does some funny, funny things. Yeah, although Buzz does have a B-plot in this. Yeah. In which he... They kind of dumb him down a bit. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:01 But in this, he sort of learns to rely on his inner voice which is the button he pushes that tells him things and it sort of leads him on it like he does whatever it tells him to do yeah and then it sort of leads him on a journey yeah to you know and eventually joins up with the other characters which i enjoyed i think that that was a funny bit yeah we don't not everything has to be kind of again sad and schmaltzy which is not really for me yeah no i can understand that i think they'll say there's heart to that character, which could definitely be explored in another movie. Because the Toy Story 3 that they didn't make,
Starting point is 00:47:28 that was going to be a buzz movie, where he gets shipped back to Thailand because he's broken. He's defective. Oh, right, yeah. But I'll never make it. We're not going to make it. And he meets Robocop. Yeah, yes.
Starting point is 00:47:40 There's not a dissimilar thing from that. But, yeah, I'd like to see if they do another one, which I think this does leave it open to it does open the door to more than just like kids and toys yeah exactly
Starting point is 00:47:50 it's a bigger universe it absolutely is yeah I think Bo Peep is really good in this they got the I can't remember the name of the actor
Starting point is 00:47:58 but she comes back she's only in one and two because she disappears in three oh right you find out that she's gone and they don't explain it and Woody's sad but then he's kind of like, we've got to keep being Andy's toys.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I'm a dad. Yeah. Your dad's got to keep moving. Yeah, it's pretty much. Really smart. Oh, yeah. And she's really great. And really, they make a really interesting character out of her
Starting point is 00:48:18 and how far she's come. That's true, yeah. From being out on her own. And we meet sort of her new crew. Yeah. Which is very cool. There's a joke with her new crew and the G.I. Joe's characters that she's with. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:48:29 That is just so on point. It's ridiculous. Do you know what I'm talking about? Tell me after because I've probably forgotten. Okay. No, I will. There's also new characters, obviously. There's the villain in Gabby.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Mm-hmm. I think it's Christina Hendricks. It is Christina Hendricks, yeah. And she's got weird dummies that she... Yes. Ventriloquist dummies that kind of flop around her. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Spooky stuff. There's never been a non-horrifying ventriloquist dummy. Oh, great. Yeah. Woody was supposed to be one initially. That was the plan. Oh, right. It was going to be, yeah, not good.
Starting point is 00:48:59 No kid would love that. Don't do it. Except for a kid who's going to become a ventriloquist, which is... That's right. Exactly. No, no, no, no, no. But there's also Key and Peele, who are quite funny as well. Don't do it. Except for a kid who's going to become a ventriloquist. That's right. Exactly. No, no, no. But there's also Key and Peele who are quite funny as well. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:49:09 As the new stuff. As the kind of carnival prizes. Yeah. Who are tied together at the wrist. Yeah. Plush Rush was quite good. I wish I didn't see it in the trailer. Oh, I didn't see it.
Starting point is 00:49:20 But it's good. Okay, right. Cool. Yeah, nice. Yeah, man. I don't know. What else do you say? It looks amazing. It looks amazing. That, right, cool. Yeah, nice. Yeah, man, I don't know. What else do you say? It looks amazing.
Starting point is 00:49:25 It looks amazing. That cat looks so real. Yeah. They just film a real cat? They just film the cat. When are they going to make a live-action Toy Story movie, though? Do you know what I mean? When are they going to make a Toy Story, but it's for men?
Starting point is 00:49:38 You know, when's men's Toy Story coming out? Boy's Story. Boy's Story. For men. Yes, exactly. Thank you. When's it going to be international men's toy story? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:49:53 I think the way this could have gone is like, well, they go back to Andy and Andy's got a kid and then they're Andy's kids toys again. Which is fine. Yeah. I'm glad they didn't do something like that. And also I feel that that kind of, you know, they're all lovable characters and we think they're great and whatever. It's depressing. It's depressing,
Starting point is 00:50:10 but it also kind of stretches credibility that a kid, that Andy's kids or, you know, whatever are still going to enjoy like some old crap. You know what I mean? Sure. I mean, they're lovable characters. I mean, that most likely is still pretty good. Still pretty sweet.
Starting point is 00:50:25 You're right. You're absolutely right. Spoilers? Sure. I'm going to say lovable characters. I mean, that Buzz Lightyear's still pretty good. Still pretty sweet. You're right. You're absolutely right. Spoilers? Sure. I'm going to say best movie ever. Me too. I did not expect it to be. I thought it would be fine.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Yeah. I thought it would be like, okay, it's another one. Great. But it's... The third sequel. How good is a third sequel possibly going to be? But it's really, really solid. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Okay. So spoilers. The villain's not really a villain. No. Which I'm glad because in the last two Toy Story movies, the villain is, nobody played with me enough, and so you can't be toys.
Starting point is 00:50:53 I'm going to destroy you all. And kids will forget you, whatever. Which they will and do, ultimately. She's misunderstood. She's had a rough trot. Yeah. And I liked it because Woody ends up giving her his voice box. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:06 And that's like a massive sacrifice. And I think that's also like life. You kind of, you do give things up along the way, either like unintentionally or you intentionally give something away to somebody, whether that be a part of you or a limb, like a kidney. Yeah. I was going to say, it's a metaphor for the kidney that is inside Woody. Yeah. That he gives to her.
Starting point is 00:51:24 But you know, like there's a self-sacrifice that comes with getting older. Yes, for sure. Whether or not you want to or not. Yeah, right. And I think this is a really good use of that metaphor. That is true. Yeah. I also thought the ending was really good the way that Woody leaves, obviously.
Starting point is 00:51:40 Yes. And it felt like that's where he should be. Yeah, exactly. Like, because Bonnie doesn't really need him. Yeah. There is that kind of. He's learned to let go. He's learned to let go.
Starting point is 00:51:49 He's fooling himself to be like, Bonnie's always, always going to love Woody, the old cowboy crap from the fifties. But yeah, I think he obviously, with a human kidney in his head. Yeah, exactly. Right. But yeah, I like, if, I mean, he always kind of knows because he's trying to rescue Forky because it's the right thing to do because he's also like, I don't have anything else. That's true, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:12 You know what I mean? Because you hear about relationships where the kids move out and then the parents, like, they don't really know each other because their whole life was focused around their kids and then they've got no purpose anymore. You know what I mean? So in the Toy Story universe, because at the end they decide they're going to go on adventures together,
Starting point is 00:52:30 Bo Peep and... They're going to have their own Toy Story. So, oh my God. For men. Good. So do the toys only collapse because a real person sees them? No.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Can they not do that? They choose to do it. They choose to do it. That's what I thought. Because in the first one, it's the only time they really break that rule. They do it to Sid. That's right. They've not really done it since, I believe.
Starting point is 00:52:58 I might be wrong. It's probably a while. There's spin-offs. Do you know in a lot of the spin-offs, not so much now, but they get Tom Hanks' brother to do the voice of Woody. Tom Hanks' brother, Colin Hanks. No, that's his son. No, that's the musician, Mason.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Tron Hanks. Tron Hanks. What's his name? Is it Tim? I don't know. It's Tron Hanks. Tron Hanks. He's the computer-built replica of Tom Hanks
Starting point is 00:53:20 that they get when Tom Hanks is not available. He looks like Tom Hanks from the 80s. Exactly. And he has all the skill of Tom Hanks that they get when Tom Hanks is not available. He looks like Tom Hanks from the 80s. Exactly. And he has all the skill of Tom Hanks but occasionally he'll zap you with a laser
Starting point is 00:53:31 and he'll send you in a computer world. And he's in a neon suit. Thank you. Yes. We've done all the Tron references. We've done them all, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:37 But what was I going to say? Yeah, so do you remember that episode of Scrubs where they put together Turner and Hooch? Yes. The Hooch character.
Starting point is 00:53:45 No, sorry. The Turner character is Tom Hanks' brother. Oh, that's right. Yes. So yeah, there you go. He looks like Tom Hanks, except he's bald. Like that's the difference. But that's Hollywood, mate.
Starting point is 00:53:53 You keep your hair. That's how it goes. Absolutely. That's right. Anyway, where was I going with this? No, they choose to do it. Okay, right. Because it breaks the magic of the universe or whatever.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Yeah, right, right, right. Yeah. So it's kind of, It kind of must be frustrating Like you can't get anywhere Because you're just constantly flopping on the ground And then a kid picks you up And throws you under a car or something For sure, yeah
Starting point is 00:54:15 Or whatever, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah How can you even die in this universe? I guess you have to be shredded, right? I guess so, yeah Like where's your brain? I don't know I mean, it's not in your head It's not in your head You've got a kidney in there, where's your brain i don't know i mean it's not your head
Starting point is 00:54:25 exactly yeah i genuinely don't know like i don't need to explain the mechanics no exactly and also it's not a midichlorian situation and it's also like well exactly you know i don't you know the the nagging question i have is like well surely other kids have created other toys in the past what's happened to all of them or Or is this just a Bonnie thing? I don't know. It doesn't matter. I guess it's part of if a kid just believes it's a toy, it's a toy. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:54:52 Then what does that mean? If you pick up a paperclip and go, this is my friend Terry. Yeah. Does that mean Terry? It'll be like, do you want some help making your Word document? I can help you with formatting. Am I still a current reference? I don't even know.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Remember the paperclip from Microsoft Word? I need a kidney. I'll poke it out of you. I'll unfold and poke you. That's an action item for this week. Does anybody remember the paperclip from Microsoft Word? Is he still around? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Does anybody just use Google Docs now? Yeah, everybody does, I believe. around i don't know does anybody just use google docs yeah everybody does i believe yeah so it was like having woody say goodbye to to buzz was it's a big deal absolutely they're mates you know and for a lot of those other people they've been mates for even longer like the slinky dog and whatever yeah so it was a really good kind of fitting goodbye and it wasn't just like he's got to say goodbye to another kid it's like no he's got to say goodbye to another kid. It's like, no, he's got his own things. Kids are unimportant now. That's right, exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:48 They're not relevant. You can buy that Ferrari. Hey, Bonnie, you don't care about me? Well, I don't care about you more. That's right. That's right. Enjoy your dumb fork. Forky's not going to last.
Starting point is 00:55:59 No. No, I don't want to see that scene. Definitely not. That's it. Cool. Cool, man. I got some reviews here i'm ready it's from david kamala harris 2020 oh yeah that's just from me that's your that's your that's your hot recommendation yeah uh david kamala harris had 2020 mcdonald i just saw toy story just saw toy story 4 so so good cried a laughed a lot, and I enjoyed that there wasn't a real villain. Best movie ever.
Starting point is 00:56:27 Pronounceable name says, Toy Story 4 only needed to be made as a gift to Woody. In three movies, the greatest good for him to uphold is being there for a kid. Now that he can't do that anymore, they decided, let's make him happy being with his lost toy. Let's lost toy with his girlfriend. Frothy Solution says, I hate to be that guy. Great name. That's the best name so far. I hate to be that guy. make him happy being with his lost toy uh that's what's up with his girlfriend uh frothy solution says i hate to be that guy that's the best name so far i hate to be that guy whenever someone
Starting point is 00:56:50 we talked about this whenever someone says they hate to be that guy i will say guess what you're that guy you don't hate it you're doing it you love it every minute of it anyway uh but we had a perfect wrap up with the franchise with toy story 3 uh the toy story 4 i'll put it this way they could easily make Toy Story 5. It was a good movie, even expands the universe, but it's not a franchise capper. I don't think it is. It doesn't, it's not like a...
Starting point is 00:57:13 Also, the toys can email each other. They figured that out in 3. Yeah, good point. I think I keep in touch. Yeah, they could like steal somebody's credit card details and put themselves in a box and then UPS them to like, to the other kid's house or whatever. It's easier that. That's right.
Starting point is 00:57:26 So many solutions. Contents. Kids toys. That's right. And kidneys. Rush. Rush service. Keep refrigerated. Contains kidneys. Old Greg says, I was very sceptical when Toy Story 4 was announced. I thought 3 ended perfectly, but I just got out of 4 and it was great.
Starting point is 00:57:41 I really cry in movies, but I couldn't help myself when Gabby Gabby found her lost kid. Also, kidney. Kidney? Kidney gabby found her lost kid also kidney huh kidney she found a lost kid very good also key and peel were hilarious uh yep that's it good stuff make another one in 14 years what's the running gag you're referring to with the army man okay it's a spoiler uh the high five it's not a money it happens twice it's true yeah yeah that's a good it's got a big laugh in my cinema. Yes. I made sure of it. Nice. I was like, that's funny, everybody. Rewind it, I said. Maybe people didn't get it.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Yeah. Don't you know who I am on a podcast? Rewind the movie. What are we reading? What are we going to read? Yeah. Then the theme song comes in. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Or maybe it already did. I don't know. I'm doing the theme. What are we reading? Or maybe it already did. I don't know. I'm doing the theme. You might want to make me sound like an idiot. Yeah. So we'd say what we're reading, what we're going to read, and then you'd put the theme song in, and then I'd be like, and the theme song goes here.
Starting point is 00:58:38 And then this all happens. Then I'd be a real dumbass. I guess we'll see what happens, won't we? We sure will. What are you reading or going to read? I think I'm going to watch Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's on Netflix. It's on Netflix now.
Starting point is 00:58:49 It's re-dubbed, apparently. Okay. I wouldn't notice. About time, I say. Didn't like that old dubbing? You've not seen it, I don't think. Let me just say, Mason, about time. Is this a new version of a character guy who knows everything about
Starting point is 00:59:07 ultraman except this guy who knows everything about anime yeah okay it's guy who knows everything about anime i love him what's your stance on subs versus dubs mate it depends on obviously the era that it's from it's good great yeah look at this obvious and there's good examples of both yeah uh this new dub of Evangelion, which I think, as I said earlier, that's what I prefer. Yeah, it's about time for that. But if you want to get fanatic about it. And you would because you're the guy who knows everything about anime.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Subs all day, baby. Yeah. He's nailed it. Anyway, you are going to watch it. How many episodes are there? I know, but how many do you think there are? He reached the limit of his knowledge, but he got it all right somehow. How many episodes is there?
Starting point is 00:59:52 Yeah. There's 35 or something. Is that all? I can check. I'll check. I just remember it feeling like more because it's such a rich narrative. Oh, yes. All right.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Yeah. And this is also the retelling. Is that right? I don't believe so. Yeah, yes. All right. Yeah. And this is also the retelling. Is that right? I don't believe so. Yeah, I know. Oh, you're going to be this guy. Which anime do you think it is? Yes.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Where they kind of, where they say, don't watch the original one. Watch like. There's 26 episodes. Okay. Wow. Yeah, right. I'm going to have to re-watch this. Yeah, nice.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Well, Evangelion ended and then a lot of people were up like a lot of fans were upset with the ending so they did an additional thing called the end of Evangelion which is basically like
Starting point is 01:00:33 oh this is how you want it to end huh well this is how it is going to end and it's basically it it's the reddit version yeah well depending on
Starting point is 01:00:42 all the women are edited depending on the interpretation of it it's basically like, hey, guess what? You're the main character and the main character sucks. That's the interpretation, basically. I love that. Speaking of main characters, but the main character sucks.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Yes. Frank Miller's Superman Year One came out last week. Oh, tell me about it. It's bad. It's really... Not really bad. Because they've been doing a lot of year ones recently,
Starting point is 01:01:07 I think. Yeah, but this is like the Dark Knight universe, but it's Superman when he's at school. Wait, when you say the Dark, you mean like the Nolan Dark Knight?
Starting point is 01:01:16 Sorry, the Dark Knight Returns universe. Oh, I see. I assume. So it's the Frank Miller DC universe, where everybody's insane. Yeah, and the art's good.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Yeah, right. Because Frank Miller is not doing it anymore. I mean, Frank Miller was an artist's insane. Yeah, and the art's good. Yeah, right. Because Frank Miller's not doing it anymore. I mean, Frank Miller was an artist. Yeah. Like, he did some good art. He remains an artist. No, he doesn't really draw anymore, I believe. Yeah, I don't think he's...
Starting point is 01:01:34 But I think, like, I mean, he's had different... He's had a lot of different styles. He's had a lot of different opinions. When he did Daredevil, he was a fairly kind of standard issue as an illustrator. And then when he moved to Sin City, people were like, oh, that's a really novel use of his skill set. And when he did 300,
Starting point is 01:01:50 people were like, this guy can really draw dongs. Exactly, yeah. He knows what he's doing. Where can he go from here? Probably nowhere. This is the best he's ever done. And then sort of with, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:59 the later Dark Knight stuff, he kind of... Yeah. I mean, a lot of people are like, I like how weird and stylized that is but no because it's incomprehensible a lot of it yeah like i get it sure but it's mostly you get it because you've seen batman before you can extrapolate what batman would look like if the man drawing batman was insane exactly yeah so yeah anyway so it's this first issue i think there's
Starting point is 01:02:21 going to be three or four i don't know uh But it's quite long, and it's basically Superman in high school. And everybody seems to know that there's something up with Clark Kent, and maybe he has amazing powers. Like, it's kind of known. They're like, what are you up to now, Clark? Anyway, there's this group of bullies that terrorize everybody, including the teachers, and nobody stops them. And also, the narration, or whatever it's called,
Starting point is 01:02:44 it might be Superman as it's happening or it might be a guy thinking back who's not Superman because it keeps changing tense. Oh, I see. So I don't know whether it's intentional. It seems like a mistake. I see, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:59 But Superman... Okay, but does it make more sense if you just imagine it's just Frank Miller saying it? Yes, yes, it does. Okay, right. And it's not an incomprehensible story. Like, it makes it make more sense if you just imagine it's just Frank Miller saying it? Yes, yes it does. Okay, all right. And it's not an incomprehensible story. Like, it makes sense. It's very clear.
Starting point is 01:03:10 Yeah. And so Superman, or Clark Kent's like, no, I could easily beat up these bullies, but should I really? And then there's a moment where he gets in a fight. I did. Yeah. In the future where I'm narrating this. So he ends up like getting in a fight and he just kind of shoves them and it's an easy
Starting point is 01:03:24 fight for him. And his dad's like, you shouldn't fight and he just kind of shoves them and it's an easy fight for him and his dad's like you shouldn't fight and don't do it and he's like but i could have been superman and they're like well there's other solutions and when you finish school you should travel the world and he's like i will and i'm gonna do it better and then later in the comic he just beats him up again anyway and i'm like what's the message here and there's like don't listen to your dad that's the lesson There's an attempted rape on Lana Lang. Like, it takes a turn that way. It's just, it's totally all over the place.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Right. The characterization of Superman and Clark Kent and Smallville and bullies and women and dialogue and flashbacks and narration and how it connects to the Dark Knight universe. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be. He probably got scripted. You should read it. Yeah, okay. I will. What is it? $3.99? That might be a bit more. Oh, jeez. universe i'm not yeah sure what it's supposed to be he probably got script you should read it yeah okay i will what is it 399 that might be a bit more oh geez uh is it did he get some sort of
Starting point is 01:04:12 script supervision from allison mack the smallville actor who joined entirely possible yeah right maybe yeah so it's uh i definitely can't recommend it but it it's interesting. Yeah, right. Yeah. I'm going to look up Alison Maxey, which is up to recently. Jail, I believe. It's probably jail. Yeah. Soon find out, won't we? Oh, I'm ready. I know.
Starting point is 01:04:32 I'm excited. Okay, all right. Pleaded guilty to racketeering charges in April 2019. Currently awaiting sentencing. Great. Yeah. Not in jail at the moment? Legal issues.
Starting point is 01:04:43 Let's check the legal issues tab. Here we go. She's in 2018, April 2018, she was released on a $5 million bond and held under house arrest under the custody of her parents in California. Holy shit. Fate worse than death. $5 million. I think she's still under house arrest.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Why did she do this? I don't know. Yeah. It's a cult thing, yeah. Cults, man. Yeah. That's why I'm distrusting of literally everything and everyone. All right.
Starting point is 01:05:08 Because you're afraid you'll be converted into a cult. Yeah, I turn around and I'm like, am I in a cult? Is Planet Broadcasting Great Mates group a cult? Yeah. Well, you'll never know until you sign up. Planet Broadcasting Great Mates official on Facebook. Come on down. Come on down.
Starting point is 01:05:21 Should we do letters now? I think we should. Let's do letters. Letters theme. The classic down. Should we do letters now? I think we should. Let's do letters. Letters theme. The classic one was letters, oh letters. We love you, some letters. They're only a day my way. I know they're here right now.
Starting point is 01:05:35 We're going to do letters. This is from Always 420. Oh, nice. Yeah, bro. Oh, sorry. If you do want to reach the show, hashtag Weekly Planet Port on Twitter. Hashtag. Nice. That's a little thing from everyday 420.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Bongs. I also know everything about weed and smoking marijuana. Well, you would because you're the guy who knows everything about anime, so of course you know everything about weed too. You can vape it. You can hotbox a car or a tent. It's a tent. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 01:06:01 It's pretty cool that you know those things. So, always420 says... Oh, sorry, weeklyplaytopod.gmail.com and Mason will read your emails. Yes. It says, what are your thoughts on a live-action Spider-Verse movie with Maguire, Holland and Garfield? Tom Holland said this week that he would love to do that.
Starting point is 01:06:23 Yeah. I think we've said this before, but yes, please, and forever. You? I would love to say that. Have we talked about this before and enough? I think we've talked about it before. We should talk about it more. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Well, that opens up the multiverse. Yeah. The multiverse is open, I should say. See, that's the thing. Would Garfield do it? Yeah. The cat? Definitely.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Yeah, for sure. Voiced by Bill Murray? Yeah, lure him with a lasagna. He'd do it. You better believe it. Do you reckon if a cat ate a whole lasagna, it would die? Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Wait, is the cat Garfield? I mean, yeah. Then no. No. Because it hasn't. Yeah, for sure. He's eaten so many lasagnas. Yeah, that'sfield? I mean, yeah. Then no. Because it hasn't. Yeah, for sure. He's eaten so many lasagnas. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:07:07 I don't know. Also, would you have Tom Holland current day meet Tobey Maguire Spider-Man and Andrew Garfield Spider-Man in their prime, like at the time of Spider-Man 3? I think it would be modern day. Modern day. Okay, right. Move it along.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Look, I think if we if if we're gonna do like into the i think people they'd probably want to do it like into the spider-verse so it'd be like okay well toby mcguire spider-man now like what's he up to in 2019 yes thing yeah right because he's like 43 now yeah right yeah so yeah but he looks like he could still be spider-man yeah he could still do it and obviously the other guy could because he's also great hair great hair he's still got it he could bring that
Starting point is 01:07:47 to a whole new but you know I'd imagine it'd be like when all the Doctor Who's team up and they each get their own skills and then they all go
Starting point is 01:07:53 good job everybody and they go back to their universes or whatever and then have a lot of discussion about why Tobey Maguire Spider-Man's the only one
Starting point is 01:08:00 with organic web shooters that's a really good point they'd have to bring that up they really would and one of them would be like yeah I designed these web shooters. That's a really good point. They'd have to bring that up. They really would. One of them would be like, yeah, I designed these web shooters. Yeah, Tony Stark helped me build a new version of my web shooters.
Starting point is 01:08:12 What's going on here? Why can you do that? It's weird. Don't look at it. Don't look into the eye of it. Don't look into the eye of my wrists. It's a yucko. And I'd imagine Andrew Garfield would beg for one of the Gwen Stacy's to jump over New Year's Universe.
Starting point is 01:08:25 Though one I think is like 15. So not that one. The Bryce Dallas Howard version. Yeah, right. What have you got, Mason? This is an email from Rob Brodeur. Okay. The subject line says, if Marvel do a Bandersnatch style show, it should be She-Hulk.
Starting point is 01:08:40 And the body of the email says, yep. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. Because that's your that's your breaking the fourth wall kind of character that's a that's a character who is aware that she is a fictional character for the most part and everybody around her thinks she's insane yes and that would also get around like a lot of people i think want it to be a daredevil
Starting point is 01:08:58 not daredevil deadpool yeah kind of and don't overuse deadpool no bringing a new bringing a new character yeah why not yeah deadpool lives in a new character. Bring in She-Hulk. Yeah, why not? Yeah. Deadpool lives in his own space. He lives in his own space. I like that a lot. Yeah, right?
Starting point is 01:09:11 You get totally meta with it. Yeah. Yes. And I guess because She-Hulk's the way you can get meta, but she's different from Dead Hulk. From Dead Hulk. From the Dead Hulk. Speaking of Dead Hulk, are you still enjoying Immortal Hulk?
Starting point is 01:09:22 I am not up to date. Pretty good. Yes. Yeah, but it's good stuff. good. Yes. It's good stuff. It is good. A lot of people have picked that up on our recommendation, I believe. Yeah, because she's Deadpool, but without the dick jokes, and she's a lawyer. So it's a different thing.
Starting point is 01:09:35 It's true, yeah. I mean, she could still do dick jokes. I bet she could, yeah. This is from the uneducated film geek loves swamp thing, brackets TV. If you were to revive a cancelled movie or video game project, what would it be? Star Wars. Obviously, I'll do Star Wars 10.
Starting point is 01:09:50 I'll do Star Wars 9. I'll go straight into it. It would just be the next month. Yeah, wow. Would it be finished in a month? I don't care. That's not my problem. Whatever they have in a month.
Starting point is 01:10:01 You want a fresh new one. What got cancelled before its time? Not even cancelled. You can just bring back something that's finished. Oh, yeah, that's true. Like, say you want a B new one. What got cancelled before its time? Not even cancelled. You can just bring back something that's finished. Oh, yeah, that's true. Like, say you want a Bugs Life 2. Yeah. Do you?
Starting point is 01:10:10 No, absolutely not. Okay. Ants 2. Then yes, absolutely. Ants versus Bugs Life. Daughter of Justice. Daughter of Justice. Daughter of Pesticide.
Starting point is 01:10:21 Look at that. That's the real villain. It's Pesticide. Okay. Something old, something new. Something borrowed, something blown. Dawn of Pesticide look at that that's the real villain it's Pesticide okay something old something new something borrowed something blown cancelled before it's time
Starting point is 01:10:30 would you bring back Buffy I mean that is coming back maybe anyways I probably wouldn't bring back Buffy Firefly no
Starting point is 01:10:35 that's the thing that people always say they always say bring back Firefly bring it back I think Firefly works better because you can imagine all the adventures
Starting point is 01:10:43 they went on or read the comics read the comics that are the continuation of all the adventures they went on. Or read the comics. Read the comics that are the continuation of the adventures that they went on. Yeah. Also, like, three of them are dead
Starting point is 01:10:51 or whatever. Yeah, right. Uh-huh. I don't know. A bunch of stuff always arrives on Netflix and you look at it and you go,
Starting point is 01:10:56 2015, one season. Yeah. There's a whole bunch of stuff that it's like, man, I would love to see even one more season of that. Sure.
Starting point is 01:11:03 I can't think of anything right now, though. Give me two minutes. I can think of one. What's that? For video games, I would bring loved to see even one more season of that. Sure. I can't think of anything right now, though. Give me two minutes. I can think of one. What's that? For video games, I would bring back Prince of Persia. Is that not coming back? Not at the moment.
Starting point is 01:11:12 What's the last one they did? Because Assassin's Creed was originally supposed to be a spin-off of Prince of Persia, where he plays an assassin in the Prince of Persia universe, but then ended up becoming its own franchise. Oh, I see. Right. And the last one they did came out at the same time as the movie, but it was an in-between,
Starting point is 01:11:26 well, between The Sands of Time and Warrior Within. Yeah, right, right, right. And it was good. I still enjoyed it because I like all those games. So basically the mechanics of those games, but I don't care if it's a reboot or whatever, because they did reboot it as well. It was cel-shaded and they changed the prints and whatever.
Starting point is 01:11:46 I did not enjoy the combat mechanics. I didn't like it. But anyway, I love Prince of Persia. I love the sense of time. Trilogy. Yes. Sorry, quadrilogy because there is a fourth one technically. And I would love to see it return.
Starting point is 01:11:56 I love it. Yeah. I can't think of a gosh darn thing. Maybe we can come back to this next week. If anybody has any suggestions, let us know for next week, because I would love to hear about that. If you've got a suggestion, yes or no. Do you have a suggestion? We want specifics, though.
Starting point is 01:12:12 I would like to bring back Charlie Brooker's End of Year Wipe that he doesn't do anymore. Yeah, that's right. He's too big for that now. Yeah, I think he's too good. He's on Netflix. He's making Netflix shows. He's making Netflix. He thinks it's better than us. Better than the BBC. Wow. No one's better than the BBC. No one's better than Aunty Beeb or whatever it's called.
Starting point is 01:12:29 Whatever that thing's called. Whatever that thing is called. It's got to be something, but I can't think of a bloody thing. I could do another letter if you want. Yeah, do another letter. Bruce Lanning says, There's a lot of talk about Keanu Reeves playing a Marvel character. Who could he play?
Starting point is 01:12:42 Did you see that this week? Kevin Feige said they approach him like every time. Yeah, exactly. Do you want to do anything in this movie? Not really? Okay then, cool. Would it be weird to see him? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:12:53 No. Because you can bring in famous people. Yeah. I don't think you can. But he's kind of distractingly famous though now, isn't he? Yes, and maybe not a lead role. Yeah. I was thinking, how about this?
Starting point is 01:13:02 This would work for him. Powerful, aloof, bald, Silver Surfer. Okay. Yeah, I like that. That's pretty good. I like that a lot. Yeah. Because he did aloof and alien in, there's a big robot coming to Earth and it's going
Starting point is 01:13:20 to kill everybody. The Day the Earth Stood Still. Yeah. That's true, yeah. You saw that one, didn't you? Yeah. And it's also Keanu Reeves a little bit against type because normally he's like, whoa.
Starting point is 01:13:28 But now he'd be like, I've seen it all because I'm cosmic, cosmic powers. But I'll give you one. Whoa. Whoa. Yeah. Or maybe he'd be like, I've got unbelievable cosmic powers
Starting point is 01:13:38 and I can do anything. And they're like, but do you believe in love? And he'd be like, whoa. Or he's like, yeah. Out of family. Oh, yeah. Had a family. Oh, yeah. That's right. Had a love of my life.
Starting point is 01:13:48 And they erased his memory. Did they? Yeah, that's how these ways... Okay. That's why the way is... I thought... He got it back. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Of course he did. Yeah. What about Mr. Fantastic? I don't like that at all. Okay. Yeah. Remember there was rumours he was going to be Plastic Man in the Wachowskis? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Plastic Man. And I guess you could throw him in as the Eternals as one of all. Okay. Remember there was rumours he was going to be Plastic Man in the Wachowskis? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:05 Plastic Man. And I guess you could throw him in as the Eternals as one of them. But any of them. Hannibal. I would have liked to see another season of Hannibal.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Oh yeah. Because at the end spoiler alert for Hannibal skip ahead 20 seconds Hannibal falls off a cliff with the main cop doesn't he? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:20 After killing the red dragon in an axe fight. And we know the way it's going to go. It's essentially going to be the Silence of the Lambs and et cetera, et cetera. But I would have liked to see it with those characters. That would be nice. But that's amazing that that series even existed because it was really horrific and it was on a network in America.
Starting point is 01:14:39 Good food prep in it. It's like the chef of eating people. Yeah, that's right. Any other questions or do you want to skip ahead like the chef of eating people yeah that's right yeah any other questions or do you want to skip that let's have one more to the end of the show uh this is ross ross lawhead hi chaps that's us what length of comic story do you generally enjoy reading most single issue six issue arc 12 issue maxi series 52 issue epic doesn't matter yeah whatever's good i do kind of like the 52 not 52 like you know like the the one shots that are
Starting point is 01:15:07 a little bit longer they're like 40 50 pages yeah right they tell like a self-contained thing yeah and there's no like you know there's that's not like and next week yeah right i i think they're okay but i mean when they're good yeah i mean but that's i feel like there's just as a as a just as a sit down and read something I feel that's not enough okay
Starting point is 01:15:29 that's not enough reading for me sure so you want a graphic novel I want a I reckon a 12 issue series okay I think I've gotten used to your Mr Miracles
Starting point is 01:15:35 your The Vision you want them all at once though you don't want to read them week to week or month to month I think I would rather read them all in one go yeah fair enough
Starting point is 01:15:42 or maybe like two sittings or whatever sure but that's that's a good sold length I think I would rather read them all in one go. Yeah, fair enough. Or maybe like two sittings or whatever. Sure. But that's a good sold length. I think because for a long time it was like, it just goes on forever. The series just never ends. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:54 And then they were like, then like I guess the big two were like, if we compact everything into six issues, we can sell them as trades. Yes. And again, that's not enough. And story arcs sell better when it's like, and it's this saga, and now it's this saga.
Starting point is 01:16:09 I reckon 12's a good solid length. Sometimes I look at like- Watchmen is kind of the classic. Yeah, right. Is that 12? That's 12. I knew that because it's an anime. So-
Starting point is 01:16:19 Oh, no. You have crossed the line. Who's going to be more mad at you, anime fans or Alan Moore fans? Let's find out. Let's find out. Are you more mad at him or not? Yes or no?
Starting point is 01:16:31 Alan Moore fans, anime fans, yes or no? So what was I going to say? Sometimes I look at like a comic run. Like I'm really behind on Saga. I'm like 50, maybe 100 behind. And I'm like, oh, that's a lot, isn't it? Yeah, it really is, yeah. Yeah, and also I'm not like sometimes when I'm like oh it's a lot isn't it yeah it really is yeah yeah and also i'm not
Starting point is 01:16:45 like sometimes when i'm in the middle of a series and then i'm also far behind because then i'm like do i start again yeah exactly yeah yeah and sometimes when you want to recommend something to people i think it's also really good to be like you can if you can literally hand it to them and go this read this exactly not like you should read saga where should i start the first one it looks like there's 12 volumes out and you're like well you should read Saga. Where should I start? The first one. It looks like there's 12 volumes out. And you're like, well, you have to read all of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:10 It's kind of like... And why haven't you? You'll definitely be hooked. But maybe you won't be hooked and I've wasted your time. Yeah. So, you know. Yeah. Is that the show, though? I think that's the whole show.
